To use the plugin install it and then insert the [webtorrent] shortcode in your posts and pages. The webtorrent shortcode supports the following attributes:

• file – if you want to specify only the filename of the torrent to use. The path will be the uploads directory + the torrents directory specified in the settings + the filename
• url – the url of the torrent
• torrent_link_enabled – enables the torrent link, the default is true
• show_seed_leech_info – shows the seed/leech infos, the default is true
• show_download_info – shows the download infos, the default is true
• torrents_directory – the torrents directory relative to the upload base directory used in conjunction with the file attribute to build the url, the default is torrents

Many of them can be set globally in the plugin settings page.

An example of a shortcode is:

[webtorrent url=”https://webtorrent.io/torrents/sintel.torrent” show_seed_leech_info=”false”]
